We started our day at Seaport Village to get Adam a hat that would fit on his giant melon! While he was serious shopping, Jen and I were having fun! Jen was really feeling the Zoo spirit as she was trying hats on!

After purchasing a hat for Adam (an early anniversary present) and stopping by the book store for a coffee, we were off to the zoo!

Parking was a bit full (spring break and all) so we finally found two mom's who where were packing up their kids and we waited, and waited and waited while they folded up strollers and got kids in car seats ... Bennett was loosing his mind (patience isn't one of the fruits of the spirit he has yet) so he got to play with Jen in the back seat (don't call CPS, we weren't moving!)

Once we finally parked we made our way to the park!

(See Adam's new hat?! Pretty cute huh?!)

Once inside we saw tons and tons of animals (of course)

I think Bennett enjoyed looking at the animals, it's hard to tell for sure, but he was really happy all day so we take that as a success!

We made sure to show him the animals

But he did get a little board in in stroller a few times

So we made sure to let him walk around some too

He even spent a long time on Adam's shoulders - he really did do so well!

Adam wanted to be an Extraterrestrial Impact Theorist (don't ask me why) He makes me laugh!
But by the end of the day Bennett did just need some sling time (but I would have liked someone to carry me too! There are a lot of hills at the Zoo!) But again, he did great!

After seeing the Pandas we went up this big long moving sidewalk thing - it was wonderful and we stopped and took a couple pictures

For the Trier family:

We only had one miss hap of the day - we forgot a sippy cup for Bennett! So, Bennett learned how to drink out of Mommy and Daddy's water bottles! He loved it and it has come in handy a number of times since then!
